Product Description
This text uses Java to describe programming concepts, taking full advantage of Java's simpler and more consistent syntax. Its traditional approach uses modern CS tools including a strategic subset of Java and a simple object-oriented graphics library. The text teaches Java as a first programming language and distills it down to a core of fundamental data types, structures and syntax. It presents Java in a leaner and more practical fashion with a subset covering basic types, stream input and output, the "string" class, branches and loops, functions, parameter passing and classes. The book includes a style guide (available in electronic format) and details common student programming mistakes. The library for the book contains a base class from which students can derive their own applets without having to learn a complex event-handling model. An appendix brings students up to speed in ANSI C++ from Java.

The presentation was very dry, but it's because it's an academic book. Don't expect that because it's Java, a hot IT technology, the book will have a great presentation. Another thing that was frustrating was the way the author smeared problems all over the book and never included solutions to them on the CD - that's useless to me. Overall, it delivered like any other academic book. If you want a better experience learning Java I recommend Wrox's Beginning Java 2 SDK 1.4 Edition, by Ivor Horton. You get more pages, better explanations, wider range of topics, better index... the works. ...
